She emphasized that this station has an extremely negative impact on the environment and  human health, particularly in the province of Igdir. "We urge all international organizations dealing with nuclear power plants and the Armenian government to  close the Metsamor NPP before Armenia turns into another Chernobyl and Fukushima. The relevant structures in our country must take immediate measures to close it. Our struggle will continue until the Armenian NPP is closed," the protester noted, adding that Igdir is currently suffering greatly due to the operation of the NPP in Armenia.  The number of cancer cases in the region has allegedly increased significantly, with people unable to receive treatment, and an increasing number of children born with leukemia.
